SonofBaconator Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Paramount was not shy about putting cloned rides across their parks, but their decisions on which park got what was….inconsistent. So the question has to be asked: why? Was KI considered for a Hurler?- why did Paramount decide to put a Hurler clone in two of their parks that were in neighboring states? By that logic why didn’t they give Carowinds an IJ:ST clone?- was that the plan down the road? I could go on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DispatchMaster Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Parks in "neighboring states" don't compete with one another, so why wouldn't they put a same or similar ride in two parks? Beyond that, parks get (or should get) cap ex commensurate with their respective markets, so that's probably what Paramount was doing.

kingsislandfan1972 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I always wondered if Kings Island would get a clone of The Hurler during the Paramount era. That actually would have been cool, but I guess we we'll never know now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
